Hidden Gems on Our Bucket List

welcome to switch it up I'm Sheila and this is Todd and today we're going to do something completely different we are joining with an amazing group of people to do a collaboration oh that's such a big word but we were nominated by you guys to jump in to this collaboration thing that they do every single month and they generally this group of RV YouTube channels select a topic and then they all give their opinions and so we're going to share all that with you in this video and do something completely different what's our opinion on well it's the video the I don't know what was the what's the topic again something about bucketless they're never going to ask us to do another collaboration with them but hey it it is what it is you get what you get we're going to roll the intro we're going to jump back into it and explain some of the things and then some of our favorite Bucket List locations that we still would like to go to so roll the intro a man and woman left their home to switch things up and go on the road they didn't know where they would go but it's got to be better than staying home they switched [Music] it and we're back I never left well well we really didn't we kind of rolled the intro we just kind of sat here anyway so this collaboration is very unique and different there's been the same group of RV YouTube channels that have been doing this for months now and they bring in a special guest congratulations we are the special guest Tada what are the channels you may ask there are five channels and then that generally the sixth channel is usually the special guest so if you have an RV YouTube channel that you would like to see them come on to this topic every single month put a comment down below to nominate an RV YouTube channel that is not part of this list and who's on this list you may ask they're a group of great people let's talk about the braz and Brits they're on there we did a wonderful video with them and we ate different foods from their country and our country and they made us eat Marmite which is not good I still like them though oh oh what is wrong with your country it's yeast extract what the hell this is you bake with yeast extract you do not eat yeast I you seriously eat it like this the Wayward Wags they're kicking it right now cuz they're on RV unplug season 2 and so and they have this little crazy dragon that they travel around with which is kind of fun they are huge in supporting all the veterans so great channel to watch then we have happy place diaries now this Jerry does this little thing on Instagram which I love he usually has like some coffee or he gives some inspirational quote sorry Jerry Sheila doesn't watch you but I do on that aspect but we also have had Jerry dress up in a dinosaur outfit we did Once Upon a Time and he also did some other things with them so it was quite funny and that was in a a fun video the road Smiths if you don't know the road Smiths um we are happy to say that we saw them in the beginning on top of Angel's Landing or something where was it we were in Arcadia I think Arcadia yep Arcadia yeah we were inad Angel's Landing that's like a big hike and I don't like hikes but yes it was Arcadia yeah yeah and so yeah that was that was over two years ago I think so and so their channel is now kind of grown and their editing is they've done great in their growth and last but not least is our everyday getaway now if you have not watched their Channel they have this amazing backstory and I'm not even going to spoil it I want you to actually go to their Channel and kind of start learning a little bit what what they're doing in their travel and their videos are they've come so far we saw them recent well it was probably well we saw them at the Tampa Show and then we saw when they were with Enduro Power Batteries and they were getting batteries with Harrison and that was in uh down Florida too so those are the channels and then we are the special guest and they are all going to talk about the same topic so it'll be should be quite interesting because we've traveled quite a bit so our answers will probably be different than their answers so that's hence the collaboration you can go and click on all the links and I'll probably put those links in the description so you can click on them and you can kind of go from there now let's get to the topic because this is an interesting thing because because we've been on the road now for 3 and 1/2 years and we have done a lot of different places across the United States and so Sheila has been thinking very hard and we talked back and forth about what of our bucket list places and things that we'd still like to see and do so like Todd said we have had the amazing blessing to be able to travel for the last three and a half years and if you haven't followed our story it's just simply that that first year that's all that we thought we were going to be out traveling so we just made a Whirlwind who are around so many different of the big bucket list things but there are still some small things that we have wanted to see and do and go experience you're when we first started your your goal though was to see a lot of the national parks like that was like her huge goal in that I think was one of the instigators when we hit the road was to try to hit some of those big bucket yeah just saw a lot of those big bucket but each area has so much to explore and experience that you there's just no way we could we could be out here doing this for 10 years and just not really scratch the surface of all the things the United States has to offer but with all the big things kind of out of the way there are some things that are still on our bucket list a lot of them are experiences and one of the experiences that I'm looking forward to that is on my list is to hit the Albuquerque Balloon Festival yeah we tried to do that um two years ago and our truck went kaput and left us stranded and we ended up cancelling all of the plans within I don't know it's probably 2 weeks before or week we were literally 3 days away from being there it was it was horrible and we were stranded in Utah yep but so that's on our list I want to get to that I think it's just one of those things you just have to do at least once everybody says that there's thousands of people there too so it'll be interesting to experience it in the new RV with the upstairs deck yep I think that'll be cool hard thing is as we have hit 49 states M we have one left to go we do and one of the experiences that I want to do is in that last state and that is I want to do the road to Hannah I think it's Hannah Hana heard it's in Maui I know it's in Hawaii that's all yes so that is something what is the road It is Well if I tell you now you might not want to go am I have to do I have to hike it no MM it's like do I have to bik 60 miles so I can drive in drive it on a motorcycle okay that's fair that's fair but that the road to H in Maui is something that is on a list of and that will cross off the 50th state for us that'll cross that off we have been to Alaska uh multiple times just because her brother is up in Alaska in Ketch can so we've been to Alaska quite a bit we have not taken the RV and we probably won't so we're counting it anyway so we're cross because we've been there what else um what do you tell them about one of the things you would like so we are about experience type stuff and on on my list for a very long time for a bucket list is that I really want to go to Iceland and right now I didn't have that written down you don't have Iceland written down no I thought we were doing the states oh we have to stay in the states no they didn't give us those rules go ahead well I want to go to I and that is because it's bucket list and that's the very first thing that I think of is a bucket list okay well we do have some out of the state bucket list well then do you want me to come back to the states to share one of the states things yeah why don't you share one of the states an experienced thing that I really want to do is the Kentucky Derby I want to I don't like to dress up I don't generally dress up and to do things for well okay I do dress up in stupid costumes I do do that but the Kentucky Derby is not a stupid costume thing it's more like you dress up you could wear a big hat we could get you a fun hat I'm sure and we could go to the I really always wanted to experience the Kentucky Derby that was on the list that's just something I still want to do and I love Kentucky Kentucky is's just beautiful yeah so there's a state in instate thing okay but there's another one that's on your list that's another instate thing do you remember no oh well I thought you wanted to be in the Inner Circle at a Nascar event yes I I want that's another experience that is an experience with the RV I've gone to NASCAR races but I've never been able to sit down in the thing and Sheila is not a huge Nascar fan and nobody said in these rules that we had the same bucket list item cuz you know each one of us can have a bucket list if they invite us back they're going to give us a whole better set of rules we need structure that's okay but that is on that is a thing that I really would like to do yes okay still in the states something that's on mine is we have missed the Fall Foliage in the New England area all every time we've been up there we've either been too early or too late and there is this sky line drive it is in the shann andoa Valley Virginia area that is on my list to hit it during Fall Foliage season I've never heard of this place most all the places we've been you've never heard of I know I I didn't know where Glacier National Park was until we hit the road and MAA Island what the heck is maol Island so we've seen so many cool things that I never heard yeah never speaking of that one of my bucket list like if we just go right over the Border as I do want to get to bamp into Canada I'd like to see that's not in the states though is that International it's just it's just right there it's on the other side it's just right there we both want to see B I want to run down strip my clothes off and jump into the water like I see in the pictures and my underwear that is way more information than they needed well again they should they should have gave us some parameters for the video all right there are several things that we want to do outside of the states how about we have a lot of intern National experiences that we want to uh hit some big bucket list there okay you can you want to come back to Iceland now no you already mentioned it yeah I want to do there's this waterfall that I think is an Africa that it's like it's like the devil's punch bowl or Devil's something where you sit on the edge of the waterfall and the water rushes over the top of you and I want to sit on that that is something I really would like to do that's that bucket list well there's there's so many places outside of the states to see too I know I know but we want to go to New Zealand we want to go to Costa Rica those are all Adventure places they are we we I'm surprised you didn't have like python hunting in Florida as an experience oh I'm going to cross that off I almost got a snake on the trail the other day so I python hunting that's that's not a bucket list that's just I want I would like to jump on like a 20 footer see if I can wrestle that sucker but I wouldn't say that's a bucket list thing that's just something that would be kind of fun to do well while you're doing the waterfall in Africa can I do a safari I want to do a safari since we'd already be there okay I'm not even sure the waterfall is in Africa I have to figure out where that is oh gosh it's just the things that you see like as you're scrolling through like different things and you're like oh that would be so amazing to be and go see you know what I think I bet these other channels when you go check them out I bet they're clear concise written down down a nice little they probably like here's the order we went to the states out of the states back in the States back out of the states the the parameters were bucket lists things that you still want to see I'm just saying that people probably clearly communicated their lists much better than we did we just do this some of our stuff is RV we can still do in the RV in the states and some of it is not so you have to have RVs in other countries we could rent oh that would be scary me driving an RV in another country you driving in this country is scary no that's not nice we're supposed to be positive and uplifting we speak truth though well with all that being said these are the bucket list areas I don't know what else to say I don't even know how to transition to that one that we would love to experience at some point down the road and we hope we can't we look forward to seeing what the other channels say and we thank you guys for nominating us for being part of this little collaboration yes but make sure you go and check out those other channels see what they had to say in a much more clear concise way to communicate and subscribe to our Channel we'll have some fun with all that being said Sheila I think we're out [Music] [Music]
